Public bug reported:

Yes, I did report a bug with a same title. And yes, I did close it. And
no, I didn't figure out why it doesn't work by digging into .bashrc &
.profile. So, here we are again. Sorry...

To Reproduce:
In Gnome Terminal:
$ sudo touch /etc/init/foobar.conf
$ sudo start foo<tab>

Expected:
foobar is auto-completed.

Actually:
Nothing happens.

Additional Information:
Upstart auto completion script uses 'initctl list' to do the trick, and running 'initctl list' as non-root only shows the session jobs.
$ initctl list | grep foo
$ 

However, it is not the case if running in a login shell.
$ ssh localhost initctl list | grep foo
foobar stop/waiting
$

I used 'dbus-monitor --system' to see if there is something unusual.
Here is what I see when I run 'initctl list' in an SSH session, but not
in a non-login session. But I actually know nothing about DBus, so I
don't even know for sure whether this information is relevant or not.

signal sender=org.freedesktop.DBus -> dest=(null destination) serial=185 path=/org/freedesktop/DBus; interface=org.freedesktop.DBus; member=NameOwnerChanged
   string "org.freedesktop.systemd1"
   string ":1.162"
   string ""
signal sender=org.freedesktop.DBus -> dest=(null destination) serial=186 path=/org/freedesktop/DBus; interface=org.freedesktop.DBus; member=NameOwnerChanged
   string ":1.162"
   string ":1.162"
